How to Apply to the Co-op Program:
Requirements for the Co-op Program:
International students transferring to TRU from outside of Canada and are attending post-secondary education for the first time (i.e. no previous post-secondary education in their home country) must complete a minimum of TWO academic YEARS at TRU before they are eligible to apply for their first co-op work term.
International Students transferring to TRU from another post-secondary institute must complete a minimum of TWO academic SEMESTERS at TRU before they are eligible to apply for their first co-op work term. This allows students to adjust to their studies, community and culture. International Students’ work-term success rate increases when given the time to adapt.
Students must submit transcripts from their previous institution (if they have one), and their current TRU UNOFFICIAL transcript. Students must also have a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.67.
Additional Information:
Career and Experiential Learning now offers the required pre-work term COOP 1000 course sections in the fall, winter, and summer semesters to accommodate our international students.
